Hello Many Worlds in Seven Quantum Languages (2021)

&gt; But today, as quantum computers with dozens of qubits are being built, and systems with hundreds or even thousands of qubits are on the horizon, the complexity of programming a quantum computer requires a more structured approach. This has led to the birth of a large number of quantum programming frameworks and languages, ranging from fully-fledged programming languages like Microsoft’s Q#, to Python frameworks like IBM’s Qiskit, to basic assembly languages like QASM.<p>I&#x27;m guessing this is QASM <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.quantum-inspire.com&#x2F;kbase&#x2F;cqasm&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.quantum-inspire.com&#x2F;kbase&#x2F;cqasm&#x2F;</a><p>Interesting graphics there. Seems like programming for quantum computers is an act of building &quot;circuits&quot;

Interesting - 6 of the 7 languages discussed are Python libraries. Must be going for the more DSL type of language. Of the ones mentioned, looks like only Q# and QASM aren&#x27;t Python-based.

Is there a good resource for learning about programming for quantum computers? I&#x27;m looking at this and realizing just how much I don&#x27;t know.

Oh this looks familiar! I left off my favorite <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;dabacon&#x2F;qsel" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;dabacon&#x2F;qsel</a> (have never used this to run against a real device).

The fact that all the major cloud providers have their own PAYG Quantum Computing setups, and I can sit here in my underwear and write quantum code, is quite frankly mind-boggling.<p>BRB, going to put my cat in a box...
